Believe it or not, football is hugely popular in the US. You just don't get that impression because there are other sports that are miles ahead (baseball, american football, basketball, to name a few). Could also be motivated by the fact that the US were one of the bidding nations for the...

I really hope it works out for him. I think it's the right move, for the reasons you've mentioned (more likely to be in starting XI and an important player, familiar manager). It seems like a fairly considered move, which is great. Plenty of players would have jumped straight to the Premier...

Everyone has an opinion on rates, but nothing is a given. Plans can change. A lot can happen in five years. This is the only reason that is valid and should be used to justify fixing rates in my opinion.

I've used Metastock in the past and found it very good. I'm now using Beyond Charts+, which is similar and just as useful, but developed by some guys in Australia who are much quicker in responding to questions/issues. They are also very approachable if you have suggestions or requests for...

My wife, six month old son and I are going on a road trip over the next two and a half weeks. The plan is to make our way from Brisbane down to Melbourne, do the Great Ocean Road drive, and back up to Brisbane. We have a few specific stops we need to make to see family, which means our...

Payrise :)

Not only that, but the atmosphere generated at some of the less attended games was amazing. The game at Suncorp between Iran and UAE only had 13k attendance, but was noisier than most sellout crowds I've been in.

It was a brilliant result, and up there with the top Australian football moments (possibly beaten only by John Aloisi's penalty in 2015). Funny how those who don't follow football always like to throw in their negative comments. Can we not just celebrate that an Australian sporting team has...

Hmmm. I'll be questioning the agent on that one in particular then.

I've received a proposal from an agent to pre-sell (off the plan) a single townhouse that my partner and I are building this year. This is one of the strategies we're considering, but I was keen to understand the costs. The agents proposed fees are 2.5% commission, plus 1% 'Project...

2014 has been a great year. Had our first baby - a healthy little boy Saw Brisbane Roar win their third Championship in four years Travelled to Brazil for the Fifa World Cup Purchased IP#3 - our first development site, construction to begin (and hopefully finish) in 2015 My wife...

There was a rumour not long ago that Liverpool were in talks to play a game in Brisbane in July 2015 against Brisbane Roar.

So the builder's insurance will cover the property for project-related damage, but do I need something else for basic home insurance? E.g. storm or flood damage?

I'm expecting to have an offer accepted on a property later today, which will be the start of my first experience with a small property development. The block has an existing post-war house in need of major renovations (~$100k), with potential for splitting the block and building a townhouse...

Shame he didn't replicate his form for Palace in the World Cup for the Socceroos.

There's been qualifiers since February, but tonight is the first official FFA Cup game.

Sleep in til 11am? Sounds awful. Sunrise is the best part of the day.

The first ever FFA Cup games will take place tomorrow night. Four games are scheduled for Game Day 1, with the remaining 12 played over the next few weeks. The first set of games involve a few ex-National Soccer League clubs - Brisbane Strikers, Melbourne Knights and Sydney Olympic...
